„Benedict Cumberbatch is equally impressive as her nervous husband and Sandy McDade provides good support as Ralph’s spouse. All in all, this is a really classy revival.“ – The Stage

„The play demonstrates that men as much as women are the victims of the period’s crude ideal of masculinity.

„Benedict Cumberbatch is excellent as George and Lisa Dillon is equally good in showing Isabel’s efforts to negotiate the double demands on women to be both morally proper and sexually adventurous.“ – Metro
